Rdc, government confirms plant but start decalage only after the first no work

The government confirms the citizenship income system for 2022 and binds the start of the check transfer to the first refusal of a suitable job, and no longer automatically from the sixth month, linking the cut to the introduction of control mechanisms with to ascertain that the beneficiary has actually accepted or refused the job offer followed by the revocation of the benefit in the face of a second refusal. The green light came at the end of the summit this morning between Prime Minister Mario Draghi, the Minister of Labor, Andrea Orlando, the head of the M5S delegation to the government Stefano Patuanelli, the Minister of the PA, Renato Brunetta and the Mef. An important decision also for the 5 stars: “for us it was essential that the decalage started from an element of decision taken by the earner and not automatically because it is clear that we aim to relocate all the people who are employable, who have access to income. citizenship and not automatically “, Patuanelli immediately commented. The DRC front, however, remains a politically hot front. The League still renews its criticisms “of the waste related to the DRC” in favor of a tax cut instead, as the leader Matteo Salvini reiterates while the Brothers of Italy confirms its clear opposition to the government’s choice to refinance the anti-poverty instrument and makes a proposal: “it would be more serious if, when the citizen requested the citizenship income, after having carried out those checks which up to now have not been carried out adequately, the State would take three months before giving it, exploiting this period to make job proposals ”, explains the leader Giorgia Meloni. Meanwhile, the Minister of Labor, Andrea Orlando, presented the conclusions of the Scientific Committee led by Chiara Saraceno. A package of proposals that outline a real income reform of citizenship that will not be transformed into a bill but unpacked and subjected to confrontation with other political forces. “We will evaluate what the proposals may be. and that they will be able to march more smoothly and others that have a more divisive content and we will send them back to Parliament “, he explains professing a certain optimism on the possibility of hooking up some changes to the budget bill, at least those” that cross some themes already present in the maneuver and can be useful to define in detail some choices already made “. Instead, the proposals with a more impactful political value will be left to the evaluation of the political forces: “I hope that those of the center-left agree with the structure of the proposals, but it is still a check that still needs to be done”, says Orlando, who notes how the Committee has he presented an analysis elaborated on a scientific basis, expressing that is “a duty to be”. “What politics will then be able to translate into concrete is a different matter but it is right to have a point of reference on what would be a Citizenship Income capable of achieving the purposes indicated by the law, he concludes”. Ten proposals grounded by the Committee after months of work. On the other hand, as the sociologist Chiara Saraceno, who led the pool of technicians, explains, “it does not seem that this maneuver has reformed the citizenship income but simply tightened the controls a little and also the conditions of access”. “For us it is perfectly fine to increase the ex ante controls, we are absolutely not against it, we think that there is an overestimation of the refusal of work by the beneficiaries of the RD, an overestimation not based on certain empirical elements. What does not work, however, are the CPI: we do not know how many job applications have been made and how many have been refused but we know that relatively few people are taken in charge. ability of those who ask. “The complaints of companies that do not find workers are mostly for very specialized occupations that certainly do not concern the skills of beneficiaries ”, he adds. Among the points to be reviewed, according to the Committee, the access criteria for immigrants: to bring the residence necessary to benefit from the Rdc from 10 to 5 years. A low-cost intervention, 300 million a year with which to lift about 68 thousand families from poverty “with the risk that their situation will worsen irreversibly where more timely help could prevent the start of trajectories towards social exclusion, when not deviance “. And again, reduce the starting threshold for 1-person households from € 6,000 to € 5,400 and differentiate the contribution for the rent based on the size of the family unit. In the Saraceno reform also a consideration of the movable assets in a more flexible way ‘providing that a part of it, about 4 thousand euros for a single person, cannot be liquidated as “as it constitutes a buffer reserve for families”. Furthermore, it would be necessary to promote the hiring of Rdc recipients, with open-ended contracts with part-time work, or with fixed-term contracts as long as they are full-time and of at least annual duration, providing incentives for employers and the strengthening of “agreements for inclusion. and the implementation of projects of collective utility “. Finally, the Committee expects to “request the declaration of immediate availability to work only after referral to the Cpi and social services and only to those who are addressed (or subsequently redirected) to the former”. The current rule, in fact, according to which in order to receive the RdC all adult beneficiaries must make a declaration of immediate availability for work (Did) regardless of whether as individuals or as a family they are then actually addressed to the Cpi or instead to social services, overlaps with that of signing an inclusion pact and creates confusion.
